摘要

Abstract

Objective:

To evaluate the effect of wrist-ankle acupuncture (WAA) in pain and functional recovery after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Methods:

From June to September 2020

94 participants were included from the Second Hospital of Tangshan and randomly assigned to the WAA group (47 cases) and the sham WAA group (47 cases) by

Results:

The VAS scores on the 3rd

5th

and 7th postoperative days at rest and in motion was significantly lower in the WAA group than that of the sham WAA group (

0.01). The ROM on the 1st

2nd

and 3rd PODs was significantly higher in the WAA group than that of the sham WAA group (

0.01). In comparison to the sham WAA group

the sufentanil consumption within 48 h of PCA pump was significantly less in the WAA group (156.3±12.2 μg

. 128.8±9.8 μg

0.01). There was no significant difference in active straight-leg raising time

postoperative weight-bearing time

length of hospital stay

and postoperative complications between the two groups (

0.05).

Conclusions:

WAA could alleviate post-TKA pain

improve knee joint function

and reduce the sufentanil consumption within 48 h of PCA pump. WAA is a safe and effective treatment in the perioperative analgesic management for TKA.
